British Grain Trade.
LONDON, May 23--The Marx Lane Err
press, in its review of the British grain
trade during the past week, says: English
wheat trade was slow and prices advanced
Sd in provincial markets. Sales of Eng
lish wheat Tor the week were j3, l73guarters
at 3is Id, against 66, 596 quarters at32s Id
for the corresponding period last year.
Flour steady. The supply of foreign
wheat is small, but buyers are
apathetic. Corn dull, and dealings have
been in favor of buyers. Nineteen cargoes
of wheat arrived, four sold, nine with
drawn and six remained. At tO-day's
market English wheat was scarce and held
for Is. advance. Foreign wheat firm.
Flour was against buyers. Corn scarce
and steady. Barley dull and lower. Oats
in favor Of buyers. Beans, peas and lin
seed were unchanged.
